Hi All:
Thanks for the mention mrn. It was fun working with Copland those many years ago.
I did a "Copland-like Concerto" for a Carter Birdwell HBO, made for TV, project years ago, "And the Band played On" with lots of solo Clarinet stuff & they actually issued the soundtrack as a separate CD!!
The original "Beauty and the Beast" Disney animation, done over 25 years ago, featues many Clarinet solos I did, also a fun project.
Many of Elmer Berstein scores for his movies in the 80's and 90's had prominent Clarinet solos that we carefully worked on.
The Cohn Bros. movies had some wild Clarinet stuff also, like "Fargo". And "Femme Fatale in 2002, begins like Bolero with woodwind solos, I think my big solo was the second one, then a few solos later, I played the very tricky Bass Clarinet solo!
The list goes on, but I won't bore you it. Suffice it to say, in the 25+ years of recording film scores here in NYC, many great composers wrote Clarinet solos which I was thrilled to do.
